Grace Baptist Church was started in the providence of God in 1973 on the northern end of Smyrna, meeting in a old building that no longer
stands. God allowed us to purchase our current building in 1979, which was built in 1907 and was originally a Methodist church. What a
blessing to have your own building with no mortgage!
Grace Baptist’s heritage is ancient, going all the way back to the Apostolic Age. Baptists and Baptist people are not Reformed, as we had
our beginnings in the Book of Acts. Baptist churches even pre-date the Roman Catholic church. We claim, as part of our spiritual
heritage, the grand old groups such as the Donatists, the Albigensians, the Waldensians, the old Swiss and German Anabaptists, the
Mennonites and Brethren, and similar groups.
Grace Baptist Church once identified with Biblical Fundamentalism, but we are very uncertain of that identification today. Baptist
Fundamentalism has apostatized from its grand heritage and is largely unrecognizable from what it was even 20 years ago. Many neo-
Fundamentalists have abandoned the King James Bible and the traditional Biblical manuscripts, separation, and godly music and have
taken up with Contemporary Christianity. That grand old movement is dead. Grace Baptist is a part of a “post-Fundamentalist” movement
which Pastor Cereghin refers to as “Remnant Christianity”, signifying the numerical smallness and spiritual humbleness of such churches
and Christians. We make no great claims for ourselves and we have no aspirations for worldly greatness. Our only desire is to preach
Christ and Him Crucified and to remain faithful to the Scriptures in this corrupt generation. We identify ourselves as a Bible Believing,
Remnant Baptist Church, standing on the King James Bible as the preserved word of God in English.
You will find at Grace Baptist a small but precious congregation of believers. We sing the old hymns of the faith and the psalms. We
preach and teach from the King James Bible. We practice ecclesiastical and personal separation from sin and error. We support missions
both here in the United States and worldwide. We emphasize the preaching of the Word of God and prayer above all. We invite you to visit
us if you are in the central Delmarva.
